AJ is the first!
We need about 8 or 10 members to get this started.

No, I wouldn't call this gambling. Its just a user group where members decide on what they need. Pappy or myself will contact a few dealers to get the best price. We then each chip in the amount for the purchase. If the item cost $100 and we have 10 members = $10 each. Them we'll have a neutral party draw the winner.
We can do this for gift certificates too

We'll discuss it further at the members area of that user group.

If any of you are interested , I would be willing to help out with the supply side of things. I have been a dealer for 29 years. Please let me know if this is acceptable or let me know if there is anything I can do. I have access to a lot of material. If I'm out of line here , I'm sorry. Just trying to help.
My email is: Tony@tcmetaldetectors .com if you would like to contact me that way.

Maybe I've missed some posts,but some of the 'group buys' may require less than $10 from all members depending on the item and the number of members.Maybe you should consider a percentage that goes to TQ,like 10% of what's pd by each member for that particular item?Or 10% of the cost of the item?And maybe I'm just mumbling,I don't know.Anyway,I'll be joining!
